Course Description

INSIGHT, the Rosh Chodesh Society’s newest course, is a remarkably transformative experience that unveils the purpose, beauty, and power buried within ourselves, our destiny, and all of existence. It does so by distilling the Lubavitcher Rebbe’s unique wisdom and infusing our lives with the ability to see things from his empowering perspective.

Contrary to the idiom, “What you see is what you get,” our sight is superficial, taking in the exterior and leaving the interior undiscovered. With insight, however, we enter within and encounter a deeper, more truthful and divine reality begging to be embraced.

This seven-part course explores the Rebbe’s broad view of the world at large, of our personal failures, of the feminine role, current trends and events, and more. We invite you on a journey in which wild jungles morph into beautiful gardens, dreadful weakness becomes cathartic strength, and blind adherents become conductors of insight….

Sight is seeing what is. INSIGHT is seeing what could be.

LESSON 1

Changing of the Garden: a World Abloom in Goodness

LESSON 5

The Dawning of an Era: The Essence of the Feminine Role

LESSON 7

Served Strong: Be a Leader. Create Leaders.

What is ideal Jewish leadership? What makes an effective leader? What makes a Rebbe? The Rebbe never set out to create followers at all, but rather, to create leaders. How can we apply this successful paradigm to all areas of leadership? Gain insight into a different view of leadership.
